Street Names & Ragdolls Project Zomboid EP.93
State of Survival Episode 93We're diving into the new Project Zomboid Build 42 unstable update, focusing on the addition of ragdoll physics and street names. Do these new features make the game more immersive or are they just a source of unneeded frustration?We discuss the benefits of having road names on the map, especially for those of us (like me!) who are terrible with directions. We also talk about the potential for modders to rename roads and the one small UI nitpick we have with the new map system.Then, we get into the hilarious and satisfying ragdoll physics. Discover how these new animations affect zombie combat, both with melee weapons and firearms, and why they add a new layer of comedy to the apocalypse. We also share some funny in-game moments, like finding a zombie in a "scorpion" pose and the surprising reactions to being shot in the legs!While we love the new additions, we also address some of the current issues, including potential stuttering and lag spikes that might be linked to the new physics. Plus, we debate whether the option to toggle these features in the sandbox settings would be a good idea.Welcome to "State of Survival"Our Podcast dedicated to the survival-based genre of video games.Our Social Links can be found here : https://stateofsurvival.org/ (https://stateofsurvival.org/)Join Our Discord (https://stateofsurvival.org/Discord):
